Is this logic correct for my steering geometry solver?

My Current Logic:

As you can see in the screenshots, I am calculating the front steer angles based on the IC. My current assumption is that the IC will always fall somewhere strictly between the front and rear axles, and will never extend beyond them.

To optimize this, for a given cornering radius, I am creating multiple IC points along an arc (drawn from the car's CG). I then calculate Vmax for each of these IC points. The solver selects the IC that yields the highest Vmax, and I use that to calculate the required front wheel rotation angles.
